Guest guest Posted August 15, 2002 Report Share Posted August 15, 2002 Hi Harsha, I have seen this forehead-pointing many times - my wife is Chinese and she does it, and we see lots of Chinese movies where they do it. And they are really and naturally pointing to what they take as themselves, not doing anything self-conscious. But it doesn't matter!! Even if only 60% or 40% of the world pointed to the center/left/right part of the chest, Ramana's teaching point is a very very good one! It resonates with those who hear it! OM to all! --Greg At 01:27 PM 8/15/02 -0700, Harsha wrote: >Thanks Greg-Ji for sharing your view. You may be >right.
